Winterize Pool | Shutdown | Hibernate | Sydney | Melbourne | Canberra

Let your pool HIBERNATE this winter

Think about it....For most pool owners the swimming season in Sydney & Melbourne is only 4 months. For the remaining 8 months the pool is not in use!

It is ludicrous that most households leave their pool running all year round. Leaves need to be constantly emptied from the skimmer and the filter constantly needs cleaning or backwashing. Water levels need to be monitored and chemicals added. Even worse, many pools just get neglected leaving them in an awful state to prepare for the next season.

        How about simply shutting the pool down for the winter season?

A properly installed Shutdown Pool Cover will seal off the pool and keep the water fresh and clean without any filtration or chemicals. The cover keeps out dust and debris.
The cover is opaque, preventing any light from entering the pool. Mould and algae cannot grow because there is no light.

Clean your pool and seal it at the end of the swimming season, then shut down your filter and chlorinator.

        The benefits:-
                No Filtration needed, saving wear and tear on Pumps and Equipment**
                No costly Energy Bills
                No expensive pool Chemicals
                No Time Consuming Maintenance
                No wasted water with virtually no evaporation (99.6% reduction)

Lock your pool up and forget it, then open it next season - clean as the day you sealed it - one dose of chlorine and youre ready to swim.

Now consider the cost aspect. A pool filter costs about 40 cents per hour to run. Most salt pools run 8 hrs/day = $3.20/day = $780 during the 8 months when the pool is not in use! Add the wear & tear on filter & other equipment. Also add the chemicals used and the bill during the non-swimming season totals well over $1200!
In addition, some households even employ a pool technician to maintain the pool!

** Your pool will remain fresh & clean during pool shutdown without filtration or chemicals. It is, however, recommended to exercise your pool pump regularly to prevent the possibility of seisure. Many pools have a 7 day timer associated with the chlorinator. 10 - 15 minutes, twice weekly, is more than adequate. We are happy to supply and program a digital timer for you at the time of installation if required.
